Hipbee Boy Underarm Charm

The oils in Hipbees Boy Underarm Charm do not block the underarm glands, and because of this they will not prevent you from sweating. HOWEVER, it does fight the odor causing bacteria, and keeps you smelling great while working up a sweat!

Hipbees natural deodorants are perfect for individuals concerned with the harmful chemicals in conventional deodorants, and those with allergies to perfumes and artificial fragrances. We do use 100% therapeutic grade essential oils of: Black Spruce, Fir,Oak Moss, Cedarwood, Sandalwood and Patchouli to create an earthy and grounded scent enhancer just for you! We hope you love it as much as we do :)

Does Underarm Charm work for strong odors that sometimes accompany hormonal life transitions? You bet your sweaty shirt it does! Chemistry teaches us that oil dissolves oil, so we got that working to control the bacteria part. Then we add baking soda, nothing works quite the same to tame a smell beast like baking soda does. One stipulation- you need to remember to put it on. Here's a morning mantra- "brush teeth and put on pit stick". But the neat part about this product is that it will help to eliminate odors even if you forgot to put it on and they have started to creep in, simply get that stuff on the pits!

To use: Lovingly massage a pea size amount of the deodorant into the arm pits. While applying this smell enhancer, please remind yourself how wonderful you are :)

***Important to note: Some people have a reaction to baking soda ( myself included). This occurs in about 20% of the population. IF redness or itchiness does develop we can make you an alternative that contains a different ingredient:)

Also important- this is a natural product that does not contain stabilizers so the consistency changes with the seasons, if it becomes too soft pop it in the fridge for an hour. If it is a little challenging to spread, hold the stick on your warm armpit for 30 seconds to get it warmed up, it will glide on smoothly after that :)

This effective product was created for our teenage son. Like many teens, he experiences random out breaks of acne on his face and back. He is perfect with or without the acne, but we do tend to use our Hipbees products for good natural hygiene to keep it under control :)

Combined with a regular washing routine and weekly acne mask, the Hipbee Boy Acne Stick is an essential component to any acne management plan :)

For Best Use: Use a gentle cleanser for the affected area (Hippees Oil Cleansing Method is great for managing acne caused by excess oil). Then allow the face to dry completely, and finally - apply the acne stick to spots, or areas suffering from an acne outbreak. IF the acne stick further irritates the skin discontinue use.

Mud-masking has been around since ancient times, for good reason. Good old-fashioned earth has many benefits for the skin. When you think of face masks, clay probably comes to mind since so very many of them contain clay as the star component to absorb impurities and help nourish and heal your skin.

Hipbees Backne Mask contains predominately Canadian Glacial Clay:) Over here at Hipbees, we aim to source raw material close to home, it is not always possible (they aren't growing coconuts in SASK yet), but we do what we can. As such, we chose Canadian Glacial Clay for our mask treatments. Referred to internationally as 'miracle clay', it is one of the most pure clays available in terms of the concentration of minerals and elements. Coupled with its amazing absorptive ability, Glacial Clay’s net negative ion charge attracts most positively charged bacteria, contaminants, and toxins, thereby detoxifying, rejuvenating, revitalizing, and deep cleansing the skin:)

To use: Mix about two tablespoons (depending on the size of the back) with equal parts of water until a smooth paste forms. Spread a thin even layer over the affected area and leave on until it just STARTS to dry. Rinse off in the shower with warm water. Finish with a gentle dry brushing if necessary. **Do the touch test: When you start to see it drying (which usually means it gets lighter in color) but it still feels a bit sticky, it's time to wash that baby off so it doesn't dry out your skin!

Important to note:There are three phases of a clay mask, first: the damp phase where your skin drinks in the beneficial minerals from the outside. Second you have the start of the dry phase, which exercises your capillaries and stimulates blood flow as the mask cools and contracts. But then there's the dry phase, which draws out moisture from the surface of your skin, causing dehydration and irritation. If left onto dry completely, the skin can feel dry, tight, and sometimes itchy.

Also important: Using a clay treatment for the skin can actually cause a short-term break out. Don't worry, this is a natural process of the skin healing. It will not last long, and is just part of the de-toxifying process. We sometimes do two masks/week and the results are awesome! However, if there is a severe reaction to the mask discontinue use and please let us know!
